If it werent for me, how would Marcus have come into this world, let alone Melissa carrying his child? Rena merely gave an eye roll in response and ascended the staircase with poise. Waylen, perplexed, hurried after her to probe, What was that look for? | need the truth, Rena.
Her response was nonchalant. If youve figured it out, why press for an answer?
